Belgio-Luxembourg Hub’s Third Webinar on Cybersecurity and Dispute Resolution

12.05.2021

The third webinar in the Belgio-Luxembourg Hub’s webinar series on Cybersecurity and Dispute Resolution was held on 12 May 2021 and addressed issues of digital identity and digital evidence.

During the webinar, John Erik Setaas (Signicat) and Bart Symons (Zetes) explored situations in which trust service providers are needed as well as considered their exposure to liability. They pointed out the need to verify identity online and discussed procedures that are being set up in Europe to that end. Pieter Wolters (Radboud Universiteit) examined the need to better identify business users on digital platforms on a case study of the proposed Digital Services Act. Such identification could support the reduction of online fraud and abusive behaviours on digital platforms.

The programme of the webinar series, organised under the scientific supervision of Enguerrand Marique, Charles-Albert Helleputte and Diletta De Cicco, can be accessed here.
